is an alarm clock? The company behind video game icons Mario and Zelda is certainly turning heads with the announcement of the Nintendo Sound Clock: Alarmo , an interactive video game-themed alarm clock. Check out the bizarre trailer below: The Nintendo Sound Clock: Alarmo is now available but with a catch. Currently, only Nintendo Switch Online members in the US and Canada can purchase it via the My Nintendo Store, with the alarm clock also available exclusively at the Nintendo New York Store for a limited run.

A wider global release is currently set for early 2025.

Featuring motion sensor technology, it responds to a user’s body movements, playing unique sound effects based on the selected ringtone and theme, such as the iconic Mario coin collection jingle.

Motion can also be used to snooze the alarm and reduce its volume, with the alarm stopping automatically upon getting out of bed. Very much like receiving new DLC content for games, the Alarmo will be updated with new themes that can be downloaded for free, such as Mario Kart 8 Deluxe , Animal Crossing: New Horizons , and more.
